Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for this e-ARC in exchange for an honest review!
This was a cute middle grade book overall. A nice secret-agent-type school for 'outcast' girls with a lot of fun and creativity put into its system. I think it'd even make for a very fun show or something for kids.
While I can appreciate how fun this could be for kids, it's one of those MG that just reads too young and misses the mark for me. I think it's mostly because it was so much more plot oriented. Harriet steals the show so much that for a bit I forgot Maggie's name 🤣 I am extremely character oriented, so such a plot-forward story just didn't do as much for me. Still a fun story for younger readers, though!
